Abstract

Methods and apparatus for a multilayer millimeter-wave window according to various aspects of the present invention operate in conjunction with a multilayer window that is substantially transparent to a passing millimeter-wave. The window may include multiple perforations in a thermally conductive element to be disposed in the path of the passing wave. A dielectric is positioned between each thermally conductive element and acts as a seal between wave source and an ambient environment. The window may also be configured to conform to a contoured surface or structure.
